Fur babies rule our world!!!

Pet care experience

Since a child I have grown up as an animal lover, no animal excluded! I've owned pets from small exotics to large horses! I started in 2001 pet sitting for friends and family, hoping to oneday become a veterinarian! I started working in the veterinary field in 2004 at a low cost clinic eventually Working my way up to Emergency hospitals and top specialty hospitals in the New Orleans area. Unfortunately I did not complete Veterinarian school due to "life happens", although I was highly trained and trusted to operate the ICU, ER, surgery and recovery areas by administering healthcare, medications, stabilizing critical patients, monitoring surgery and my patients, along with a lot of TLC to the fur babies!!! I treat every fur baby as if he/she were my own while in my care. I love making fur babies feel comfortable and safe while their parent/s are away having fun...or working! . I have worked with many breeds and the very many different personalities (Aggressive to the most submissive babies). ALL babies get treated equally with love, care and affection. Though some may not be into it while warming up to me, I use patience while talking to them (yes, talking!) I try to stay flexible for scheduling and drop in visits as I know life happens and I'll do my best to accommodate! I have trusted and close veterinarian friends on stand by at all times. I also am well known in the Vet field due to my experience and work ethic in the field! References available upon request!

Information Amanda K. would like to know about your pet

ALL fur babies MUST be up to date on vaccinations! I know the first few days can be strange to the babies, and some may be scared. If your baby has not been socialized, please let me know so I can work with your baby and schedule the appropriate time slot. ALL breeds are welcomed!!! Due to my experience and knowledge, I can feel out the fur babies dispositions and help to calm and introduce them to being with other babIes as well as a new environment. If your baby gets dirty while playing with friends, I will do a courtesy bath after consulting with the parents for choice of shampoo incase of skin allergies,etc. I can absolutely give your baby a bath upon request!

A typical day

Fur babies will enjoy the comfort of home and family while in my care instead of being caged in a boarding facility. They will have a baby pool to swim and play in as well as other fur babies. We will love going and having fun on walks while site seeing, maybe get taunted by a few squirrels...
